lyrics

Sometimes I leave your name on the screen
Sometimes I leave your name on the screen
Sometimes I leave your name on the screen
Just to feel the feeling

I don't wanna know what I said last night
And I, I don't wanna look to check the time
Cause I don't wanna know how long its been
And how long I gotta wait before clicking send
Without looking desperate

So I just leave your name on the screen
Yeah I just leave your name on the screen
I just leave your name on the screen
Just to feel the feeling

Easier assuming he hasn't seen
Than tryna figure out what he means
I don't wanna know how long its been
Or what all of it means about who I am
And where I stand

So I just leave your name on the screen
(even though)
Yeah I just leave your name on the screen
(I already know)
Sometimes I leave your name on the screen
(the answer's no)
Just to feel the feeling

At a loss
For words?
At a loss
for fingers?
You must be dead
Or you would have responded

So I just leave your name on the screen ...

about

LAKES New York, New York

LAKES is a 4 piece pretty-grunge band, originally formed by Libby Winters and John Gallagher Jr after they met working on the Broadway production of American Idiot. Inspired by the theatrics and emotionality of early Green Day and Smashing Pumpkins, the textural landscape of My Bloody Valentine and Nirvana, LAKES is a fuzzy pink love letter to all your favorite 90s shoegaze/grunge heroes. ... more
